Univ. of Georgia, USA), is a Professor of Biology, Dept. of Biology and Chemistry,

power plant on smallmouth bass (a popular sport fish in the North American Great
Lakes). He has also published on the potential effects of nutrients from water birds
and humans on aquatic plants and fish in Okefenokee Swamp, Georgia; and on the effect
of such substances (both positive and negative) on water quality, algae, aquatic
invertebrates, fish, etc. in such habitats. He has also worked for government environmental
protection departments in the U.S. and Canada.
